02/17- SC ❤ Nikki


Our Democratic and Haley interns collided again at the Nikki Haley event in Irma. We all had the opportunity to take a picture of her and ended up on her Instagram as well. We got merch and posters and even met her son.





Her son, Nalin, was very kind and gave us insight into what it has been like following his mom on this bus tour. We all got a picture with him and even got this Villanova student to hold up a "Go Bulls" sign.

                                                        Some of us were REALLY excited to meet Nalin.

 If it could not be inferred by the title the class went to the Governor's Mansion it was stunning. We met Mack the governor's bulldog he was a cutie.  We were told about the history of the estate and the intricacy that went into the furniture and decor details. We looked into the history of South Carolina as a whole and its' historical figures. The garden area was colorful especially for it being winter here.  Here's a car selfie with Steven on the drive there!

 Today the class went to Lizard's Thicket, a local spot known for being a prominent campaign spot, and had breakfast while watching a newscast with Ainsley Earhardt. Shortly, we went to the market being held in front of the capitol building and got to see all the local businesses displaying their products and even tried some food and drinks. Seeing a city come together and uplift local businesses and promote community engagement was heartwarming and I had a great time walking around.  Sasha DEVOURING some BBQ chicken! We also got to visit the University of South Carolina and walk around the campus. The buildings and layout was gorgeous and felt very welcoming. I enjoyed seeing people on the green having picnics or reading books. I am sad this trip is coming to an end as I have made so many great memories and built new friendships as well.
